Ice Skating and Snow Ball Fighting!!!

This winter sure has been different than last. I went ice skating with hubby & the kids last night & I skated for 2 hours. Normally, I sit on the bleachers & buy hot chocolate for the kids as they get cold. We have about 8 inches of snow form this past week, and the kids and I have been loving our snowball fights! We took the dog out and had a blast just playing in the snow & running around like crazy fools. It is so much more fun being a participant in life rather than jus****ching from the sidelines! Are you "getting in the game of life now?" Hugs, Darlene

I know what you mean Darlene I had so much fun in the snow with my family- running around and playing. I couldn't do that before, and didn't really realise just how much I was missing out. I bet your family enjoyed it even more with you joining in too. As you say, we are getting in the game of life now and it's great!

No snow where I am but I took my kids to play racketball today and I outran them.. its is so great to be a part of it and not just sitting on the side wishing I was somewhere else where others couldnt see me.. Life has become so much better as far as participation.. I just love it now.. heck.. i may drag them to the snow just so I can play in it.. lol

Hi Dar! I'm not big on the cold still, I feel it WAY more now then i ever did. Thankfully this hasnt been a snowy winter so i've gotten out of that "stuff" I have found that i have more patience now that i'm no longer sugar/carb addicted, I don't have the urge to run from my family anymore. I enjoy being with them and now, they enjoy being with me. We do go out more now that I feel like i'll fit in socially. Hugs, ANDI
